The Amur River gas tanker cannot enter San Juan port because New Fortress Energy has not received an order from its New York offices. [^1]

The vessel has remained off the coast of San Juan since September 16, 2026, awaiting authorization to deliver natural gas. [^2]

Carlos Faris, manager for NF Energy, stated that the ship is held by the lack of a directive from the company's headquarters in New York. [^1]
